How to Recruit Dulahan in Sovereign Tower

Community-reportedGuides and August 31 task snapshotRecruitment and transformation reports compared with the prisoner task October 20, 2026; not reproduced in-game by this site.

What the report actually says

Reported condition	Reported result	Safe interpretation
Goberto dies	Dulahan can appear	An appearance isn't proof of every preceding or following condition
Any act	The report doesn't limit the route to one act	Don't infer identical scenes or timing in every act

The original recruitment guide does not establish whether other flags are required or how every timeline changes afterward. The player comments below provide a specific reported quest pairing, not proof of the only possible route.

Choose your goal before changing the roster

Your goal	Start here
Keep Goberto	Read the Bloody Magpie warning below before assigning him
Recruit Dulahan	Compare the reported loss with your intended roster, then check the scene and roster result
Restore an already-recruited Dulahan's human form	Use the political-prisoner report below; this is a later transformation, not a recruitment step

Bloody Magpie: a reported cost to Goberto

August 7–9 comments report Goberto dying after being sent on Bloody Magpie, followed by Dulahan's arrival. Avoid that pairing if keeping Goberto is your goal. These are player comments, not an official trigger or a complete account of prerequisites.

Already recruited: the human-form report

August 11 replies report restoring Dulahan's human body by assigning him to the political-prisoner fight. They describe 1 Wisdom for the single-prisoner option or 1 Tyranny for multiple prisoners, with the latter harder. A reply corrects the opening post's Conquest wording. These are reported choice gates, not guaranteed victory requirements.

Before either branch, keep a save if possible and note your goal. Check the roster for recruitment, but check Dulahan's form after the prisoner fight. If a rewind changes the available scene, compare that story state before repeating the assignment.

Human body or new helmet: choose before the Almor fight

Samhain's October 16 guide describes two different Almor rewards: send Dulahan to the political-prisoner fight for the body route, or complete the tasks without him for the helmet route. It also warns that choosing the dragon instead of the prisoner fight on a replay bypasses this opportunity.

• Human Dulahan: select the political-prisoner fight and assign Dulahan. Check his special debrief and changed form, not merely an ordinary victory.
• New helmet: follow the reported alternative with another Knight. Check the helmet reward and Dulahan's later request; receiving an item is not the same as equipping it.
• Keep the option open: pause before substituting the known dragon challenge, and check whether the prisoner task remains available before committing.

The historical Political prisoner fighting record gives this comparison a concrete reference. Its ordinary success lists a cursed helmet; its Dulahan-specific outcome instead records a human-form instruction and a different follow-up. These are separate outcomes, not two names for the same upgrade.

For the body route, inspect the actual political-prisoner task after making the audience choice. The snapshot contains a harder modifier but does not expose its activation condition; the Wisdom/Tyranny distinction comes from the player replies above, not a proven current-build formula. Raising combat stats alone does not replace selecting the correct branch and Knight.

Evidence limit

Verified scope: Dulahan is a named character in the official profile material used by the site. Community-reported scope: the post-Goberto-death appearance. No official source in the current evidence set confirms the trigger, timing, or full consequences.
